Cult leaders do weird shit to appease to something above them

[u/GondorsPants → u/ThatWhiteGold]

I’ve always wondered tho, is it still a cult if they are actually right about something?

[u/[deleted] → u/GondorsPants]

Yea because even if they’re correct in whether or not their god exists, they’re still incorrect in their ideology. You shouldn’t execute people just because a vague supernatural force says that you’ll commit a crime in the future.

How do the cultists know the accuracy? This god sure seems accurate. And the prophets of the god says their accurate. But, even if they’re right, how does any one cultist know they’re right.

[u/dux_doukas → u/GondorsPants]

The original definition of cult had to do with the centre of worship and rituals. So you could talk about the cult of Zeus, the cult of Athena, etc.
